Long-Distance Dispersal and Spread
2016Long-distance dispersal is a key factor driving rapid spread of invasive species. In this chapter, we develop models for dispersal kernels, which describe the spatial distribution of propagules relative to their parent. Dynamical systems that couple dispersal kernels with population growth can be formulated in either discrete time (integrodifference ...

Long-distance dispersal and self-incompatibility
New Zealand Journal of Botany, 1979Abstract There is a paucity of self-incompatible plants in the flora of oceanic islands. In New Zealand, the only plants so far known to be self-incompatible are several species of grasses and two dicotyledonous species. None of these have yet been studied for genetic control of incompatibility. Monocotyledons, including grasses, are known to have the “

Long-distance wind dispersal of tree seeds
Canadian Journal of Botany, 1995Long-distance seed dispersal figures prominently in most plant conservation biology arguments, yet we possess little more than anecdotes concerning the relationship among deposition (seeds/m2), source strength (seeds/m2), and distance. In this paper we derive two simple models for long-distance deposition.

Hygroscopic stem reshaping promotes long‐distance plant dispersal
New PhytologistSummary Cleistogenes squarrosa is a pioneer tumble plant widely distributed across the Eurasian steppes. It achieves long‐distance wind dispersal through stem reshaping.

Marking live conifer pollen for long-distance dispersal experiments
Oecologia, 2010Long-distance dispersal (LDD) theory requires a method for marking live LDD pollen. Such a method must complement more intensive sampling methods inclusive of molecular cytogenetics, proteomics and genomics. We developed a new method for marking live Pinus taeda pollen using two dyes, rhodamine 123 and aniline blue, dissolved in a sucrose solution ...

Long-distance seed dispersal in plant populations.
American journal of botany, 2012Long-distance seed dispersal influences many key aspects of the biology of plants, including spread of invasive species, metapopulation dynamics, and diversity and dynamics in plant communities. However, because long-distance seed dispersal is inherently hard to measure, there are few data sets that characterize the tails of seed dispersal curves. This
